Leonard Fournette missed 6 games.

McCaffery missed most of a game against Washington State and then sat out the next game against Notre Dame.

Ross did not miss a single game all year and set a 40-yard dash record at the combine.

If you eliminate all players who had injuries in college then you are going to miss out on a bunch of the best players in the game.  And I don't really think the Bengals draft more injured players than other teams.

You're still calling non-surgery ankle sprains "serious injury issues" and comparing them to John Ross' Meniscus surgery, ACL tear surgery, and Labrum tear surgery. Even that record setting 40-yard dash time, he strained his calves at the end of.

Dude had 3 surgeries in college (one a year for 3 straight years), 2 of them on his knees.... but sure, ankle sprains are basically the same level of medical red flag.

And you are still calling issues that did not cause Ross to miss a single game his final year in college "serious" while ignoring injuries that took other players out of games.

If you want to include entire college careers instead of just final seasons then I can find even MORE examples of great NFL players who had inury issues in college.
